| Salt and pepper | To taste |
| Minced garlic cloves | 2 (optional) |
| Minced fresh thyme | 1 tsp (optional) |
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare Cream Mixture:
- In a large bowl, mix the heavy cream with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and minced thyme (if using) for an even coating.

- Pour Cream Mixture:
- Pour the prepared cream mixture over the potatoes, ensuring they are well-coated.

- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooled, serve your Scalloped Potatoes as a delightful side dish or main course.
